Čertův hrádek, Natural monument in Rohozná, Czech Republic.
Čertův hrádek is a granite rock formation located in a protected nature reserve near Rohozná in the Czech Republic. The site features distinct stone blocks rising from the forest floor, shaped by natural erosion over a long period.
The rock formation received official protection status in 1984 to preserve its geological structures and the surrounding forest ecosystem. This designation recognized the site as an important element of the region's natural heritage.
The place gets its name from an old tale about a devil who tried to build a castle during the night. This story remains alive in local memory and shapes how people see the rock formation today.
The site is accessible via a marked trail system that winds through the forest and leads to the rock formation. Wear sturdy shoes as the paths can be uneven and muddy, especially after rain.
The rock formation contains features named after devil-related elements, including a saddle formation and a depression resembling a hoof print. These details draw visitors interested in discovering the connection between geology and local folklore.
